On December 26, Sanya Municipal People’s government, Hainan SASAC and Beijing Highlander Digital Technology Co.Ltd(300065) signed a strategic cooperation agreement on Sanya subsea data center project.
It is understood that the “Seabed Data Center” is to install the server in a sealed pressure vessel, place it on the seabed, supply power with submarine composite cable, and return the data to the Internet. The seabed data center uses the sea for heat exchange, and uses the velocity and volume of sea water to dissipate the heat generated by the server; It effectively saves energy and resources.
The seabed data center occupies very little land on the shore; Without cooling tower, each cabinet can save 200 cubic meters of water resources every year during operation.
The use of the sea by the seabed data center is not exclusive. The sea area can not only contain ecological projects such as marine pastures and fishery cages, but also serve each other with industrial projects such as offshore wind power and offshore oil platforms. This characteristic of the seabed data center is the summary, practice and exploration of land and sea overall planning, ecological sea use and intensive sea use. At the same time, compared with the onshore data center, it saves power, land, water and green, and the total cost also has obvious advantages.
